The method for confirming the skin improving effect of the present invention and the results of the confirmation are described in accordance with the examples. In addition, this embodiment is not intended to limit the present invention. [Examples] (Skin-improving effect of oral ingestion of B. macrophylla extract) 24 healthy women aged 33 to 38 who agreed to participate in the experiment were divided into two groups including an experimental group and a control group (12 mother groups) . The experimental group drank a bottle of 125ml large fruit moss berry juice (product name-UR65 "sold by the company in the morning and evening each day. As for the control group, the specified special drink was not ingested, and seasonal fluctuation measurement monitoring was performed. The experiment period was four weeks in total. At the beginning and after four weeks, the changes of "self-reported skin state and physical condition", "skin diagnosis by a beauty expert", "skin moisture content and skin elasticity", and "peripheral blood circulation function" were performed. Determination. Various measurements were carried out after washing the face, in an environmental laboratory adjusted to an environment at a temperature of 23 ° C and a humidity of 50% RH, and performed on the seat for 20 minutes. ® The changes in skin state and physical condition reported by ourselves are carried out by means of questionnaires and the changes are quantified. Four weeks after the start time is used as a reference, the skin state changes evaluated by yourself are shown in Figure 丨. For the average of 12 people, the comparison between the experimental group and the control group shows that all the evaluation items have a tendency to improve. In particular, the items of "pan oil", "tension," acne and facial blister "," transparency ", and" comprehensive evaluation of skin "are considered to have statistically significant differences. The skin diagnosis made by a beauty expert is visual inspection and palpation, and this change is quantified 9 200528033 16195pif.doc. Four weeks after the start time was taken as a reference, the skin state changes evaluated by myself are shown in FIG. 2. For the average of 12 persons, the comparison results between the experimental group and the control group show that all the evaluation items have a tendency to improve. Especially in the items of "crow's feet", "skin under the eyes", "sense of tension", and total J evaluation of the skin, it is considered to have a statistically significant difference. This test result indicates that the 'experimental group is considered to have oral intake Skin improvement effect. S Skin Moisture Content 'is an electrically conductive product with the trade name SKICON side (manufactured by the company). It is obtained by measuring the moisture content of the central corneal layer (h〇my). The result of the measurement is Four weeks after the start time was taken as the benchmark, the amount of change in the content was divided into the experimental group of +6. City and the control group of -0 ¥ '. The experimental group was considered to have a good skin moisturizing effect. Improvement of "smoothness", palpation of "smoothness", and improvement of "fishing / fishing feeling" By comprehensive consideration, we can understand that the oral skin improving agent of the present invention has the function of moisturizing the skin. ^ The amount of sebum is used through The light ratio type fat meter is obtained by measuring the degree of sebum on the left eyebrows, and graphs and judges it. The result of the judgment is the sebum amount determination after four weeks based on the start time. In the experimental group, There were four who improved, four who did not change, and four who deteriorated. On the other hand, in the control group, there were seven people who did not change well, seven who did not change, and five who deteriorated. This ^ Jiguo Refers to the results of seasonal variation measurement monitoring during the experimental period. Control θ: The amount of the condition deteriorated, while the sebum level of the experimental group remained unchanged. For the "pan oil", "acne and facial rash" reported since the month The improvement of the ^^^ = 200528〇33 test, we can understand that the oral skin improver of the present invention has a function to adjust the amount of sebum. Skin elasticity, using the skin elasticity measuring machine SEM575 (彳 > by / Jiner Kogyo company ) The skin elasticity (rebound rate) of the upper part of the right cheekbone was measured. The measurement result is the change in skin elasticity after four weeks based on the start time. The experimental group was + 5.9%, the control group At -3.9%, the test group was considered to have a good effect on improving skin elasticity. The improvement of the "tension" reported by themselves, the improvement of "slackness of the skin under inspection", and the improvement of "tension" of palpation were performed. By comprehensive consideration, it can be understood that the oral skin improving agent of the present invention has a function of maintaining skin elasticity. / Peripheral blood circulation function is using a Bc tester (acceleration pulse wave measurement system '7: (亇 ... 夕 工 彳 7, made by the company) The part of the towel '㈣ Niubo, whose fingertip is placed on the sensor, was defeated as a fraction of money. The result of the measurement' is four weeks based on the start time. The change in the fraction of posterior peripheral blood circulation function, f, is +39 in the experimental group and _23.9% in the control group. The experimental group is considered to have a good effect on improving skin elasticity. This result indicates that the seasonal fluctuation measurement monitoring during the experimental period Results' The peripheral blood circulation function of the control group deteriorated, while the blood circulation function of the experimental group 1 remained unchanged. By comprehensively thinking about the "blood circulation good results" reported by ourselves, we can understand that the oral skin improvement of the present invention has The machine that keeps peripheral blood still ring. # The oral skin improving agent of the present invention has the function of maintaining ~ ring, in the drug = 200528033 I6l95pif.doc and the range, when "some;: =: 不 的 psychological range when viewed The attached towel is subject to the protection of the invention within the scope of the patent.
